Sorry for the slightly longer absence than usual, I had a
busy old week last week. Starting last Saturday with the hen night that I mentioned
in the previous post, where twelve of us went up to Brighton in a Hummer Limo
dressed up as pink ladies due to the fact that pink is the bride’s favourite
colour. We all had a great girl’s night out, and I am very much looking to
they're movie themed wedding at the end of next month. Apart from this the rest of my week was taken up working full-time at my retail
job, as the schools were off for half-term so we were relatively busy, which
didn't give me time to do much else let alone drawing. So after all that this
weekend just gone was a pretty chilled literally! We have had few lovely sunny
almost spring like days recently, with some beautiful sunsets now that the days
are starting to draw out. But over the weekend it has become very grey
& bitter again, with the occasional snow flurries.

Now onto this week, and as you can see from the title of my blog I have the week
off! Yay! So I am hoping to make up the lack of drawing blogging last week and
get allot done, including tiding the flat & doing other mundane
things that you never normally get the time for. I know that the week is going
to fly by so I really do hope it's a productive one, and I hope that you all have a
lovely week too! x

I hope that you all had a lovely day both on Tuesday for Pancake Day, and yesterday for Valentine's Day. Today I am pleased to announce that my website has finally gone live! I was hoping to get it up and running for Tuesday as I mentioned in my last post, but unfortunately the server has been down for the last few days so I was unable to get access to it, plus I also came down with the flu so Tuesday was generally doomed as launch day! It's just a basic site for now but I am quite pleased with how it has turned out, and I hope you enjoy browsing it.

I have also joined the world of Pintrest this week and set up my own account, which is something that I have been meaning to do for a while now. As well as this you have probably noticed that I have set up a new Navigation bar on my blog too, so Bobby Bunny and Friends are officially taking over the web!

I hope that you all have a lovely weekend; I am out for a hen night which I am very much looking forward to. I just need to dose myself up and make myself well for it, but I am feeling much better today anyway. Have fun and I hope the weather is good for whatever you may be doing! x

Morning! I hope that you all had a lovely weekend, and wrapped up warm! I
had a pretty busy one, spending Saturday in Brighton meeting up with the
hubby's family which was nice. Then on Sunday we went over to my parents, as my
Godmother and her family who are currently over from Australia were coming to
visit.

It was so lovely to see them all as it's the first time they have been over
since they emigrated nearly six years ago. I think that the weather has been a
bit of a shock to them though after being in 40 degree heat, and especially for
their boys as they were only 3 and 6 when they moved and don’t remember allot
of the country, and certainly haven't experienced snow or temperatures like
this before.

It was really weird seeing the boys so grown up now and with ozzy accents. But
they all looked really well and, even though we hadn't seen them in all in such
a long time as soon as they arrived it seemed like it was only yesterday since
we had last seen them. Like it often does with good friends, no matter how long
it is since you have seen them that connection doesn’t go.

The day went very quickly and it’s a shame that we won’t be seeing more of
them while they are here, as I know that they too would have liked to see more
of us to. But they are only over for three weeks and have a lot of family,
friends and sightseeing to do in that time.

However seeing them again has really refreshed my want to go over and see
them one day when we can afford it.

In other news I have finished my second Bobby Bunny image to go onto the
Contact page of my website, as you can see below. So my website should be ready
to go live tomorrow! Have a good day x

As I mentioned a few posts back I have been busy building new website to
promote myself as an Illustrator, and it is now very nearly ready to go live.
So this week I have been working on the finishing touches, which are a couple
of images that will be placed on a few of the pages. One of which I have just
finished ready to go on my homepage as you can see below, and the other I will
be able to share with you in a few days.

I hope that your week is going well and that the weather is looking up where
you are! We have a very chilly breeze at the moment but do actually have some
sunshine, which feels quite alien after the weather of late! x

About Me

Hi welcome to my blog & my life! I'm Jennifer I'm 29 years old and on a mission to become an Illustrator! I graduated with an HND in Illustration 2008, but after working full-time in retail to save for a wedding and our first property the Illustration got put on hold. After that I continued working thirty hours a week in my retail to subsidise me as I set up freelance selling my Bobby Bunny & Friends card range, but again time was not easily found around work, life, and doing up a property. Then at the end of March last year I was given the opportunity to take voluntary redundancy, so I now have the time to give my brand a good go at launching! I am a little eccentric and have an obsession with bunnies! I mainly draw animals as characters or in a realistic style working in watercolour & coloured pencils. A lot of my inspiration as I have grown up has come from my two beloved bunnies Milly & Molly, who both sadly past away at the grand age of 11 and a half in early 2012. I miss them both very much but their memories continue to inspire me every day. I also get inspired by nature and the outdoors, our one year old bunny Florrie, plus I love photography. x
